SEVEN MONTHS OLD

5-5-2012

My Colter Boy is seven months old. Another month has started and now we are already half way through May...crazy!  {the time is passing so quick i have a hard time keeping up} Colter is on the move.... he is rocking and rolling and moving all over. He finds his way to my lap and then climbs all over me. He is always moving, he flaps his arms and kicks his legs so fast, its like he is going to take flight. He has so much energy. He is a HAPPY Boy, very chill and content. He likes me to be right by him all day, we are little buds and we do EVERYTHING together. Colter is very sensitive to noises, he is easily startled and instantly terrified!!! He still isn't sleeping through the night, I have always thought he was a good sleeper until it dawned on me that he is 7 months old and still not sleeping through the night, oh well what do you do. He takes great naps so that's a plus!!! His skin has been clear of eczema for awhile, we are still using the creams religiously and I'm hopping that Utah doesn't flare it up again. This is such a fun age, Colter loves to play games and read stories and sing songs he gets really excited!! and no one can make him laugh like his daddy can.... he sure loves his dad!!! and mmmm I could just eat him up!!!

Colter is learning and perfecting new tricks every day. This is a little glimpse of what our are normal everyday day to day looks like

 {I'm trying to be better at taking pictures with the real camera and not just my phone} 

It amazes me how fast he picks up on things.

 For instance, he rarely drinks out of a bottle {only a few times} and when we gave him a sippy cup he grabbed it with both hands and went right for it, I guess EVERYTHING goes straight into his mouth but I was surprised that he could hold it and knew to drink out of it.

 I Just stare into those baby blues and get lost, this baby knows the way straight to my heart, I think I might be in trouble with this one.

  

He LOVES to sit up in the tub and splash and play and he doesn't really mind if his face gets wet or drenched. I think its about time we get some tub toys. We love that he loves the water.

Colter is a really good eater, this is the first time with green beans and he didn't gag, spit it out, or make a yucky face, he just ate it. He loves them all {sweet potato, squash, green beans, apples, banana, pear, and the mixed fruit. but his most favorite is the oatmeal with bananas}

 Colters many FACES. 

 so animated.so entertaining.we could watch him all day.and we do.
